“All the women are officially signed up for SATC movie 3,” a source close to the cast told Radar. “The deal is done and the script has been approved by all the women.”

But it almost wasn’t so. Apparently SJP, 51, the show’s leading lady, almost didn’t get on board.

“There was a lot of back and forth,” the insider said. “Sarah Jessica Parker was not originally on board because she didn’t like the idea of the characters being portrayed in a more mature light."

So tweaks were made to the script to “make this a reality.”

“The full green light for Sex and the City 3 the movie is really new,” the insider continued. “Everyone’s happy with how things have turned out and they can’t wait to get started working together again.”

Kim Cattrall, who plays everyone’s favourite character Samantha Jones in the series, recently hinted the ladies would be returning to screens, after she dropped some pretty BIG HINTS on Instagram.
